Can anyone tell me what type of scope mount fit these holes on the receiver?

**Lonely Gunny** · 07-24-2012 03:21 AM

I know, I know, a "clever" guy before me drilled right thought this piece of art (right through the Portuguese crest). I'm wondering what type of scope mount these holes are for?

Also any meaning of the letter F on the safety?

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Probably a standard Weaver base. Is it #61 and #62? I'm not sure. Just single blocks and civilian in manufacture. These guns came to Canada icon

by the dozen in the grease in about 1978 and every second one was done like that for hunting.

Some bubbafacations are more painfull than others. This particular one I find to be analogous to a sharp stick in the eye.Or perhaps a dull stick in the eye. I think Gunny is on the right track covering the holes. To painful to view.
